Assessing reliability: Critical corrections for a critical examination of the Rorschach Comprehensive System
Article Abstract:
It has been argued by Wood, Nezworski and Stejskal that the Rorschach Comprehensive System (CS) was lacking in essential reliability data, and that scoring reliability could be little better than chance. However, there are suggestions why rater agreement should concentrate on responses instead of summary scores, and how reliability moves away from testing CS scoring principles. CS is shown to have very good chance-corrected interrater reliability following a meta-analysis of published data.

The author makes brief comment on Wood, Nezworski and Stejskal's (1997) response to his article regarding the Rorschach Comprehensive System, documenting how allegations continue to be based on a restricted subset of available literature. Their criticisms relating to kappa, test-retest reliability score aggregation, true score theory and the author's own meta-analysis, are incorrect
